It was cool this morning, but not cold. Yesterday the high was again in the mid 50s (F), and there's a good possibility that's going to happen again today. We are going to cool off. By Thanksgiving our daily highs should only be in the low to mid 40s (F). There is a blast of cold air coming from up north that will take our overnight lows down into the upper 20s (F) next week, but then that will pass.
Yesterday was a day of rest from my workouts because I worked. It was a slow day. I did get another measure and I sold some flooring. I'm fair certain that when I go into work I will be the sales leader from last week, and I probably tied the full timers with measures. This is fine. I'm scheduled to work today and would really rather stay home. However, and this is a big however, calling off on a scheduled day, either before or after a holiday, will cause you to lose your holiday pay. Since I'm not scheduled Thursday because of the holiday, I do want that pay to cover the hours I'm losing. And today is my scheduled day before the holiday.
I've been pondering this, and my schedule in general. For about a month and a half I was only scheduled 3 days a week. I liked that. Working 17 hours a week was fine. So, today I'm going to change my availability. On the next schedule that gets written I'll be working Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I'm also not going to be working past 6 PM. The flooring department is transitioning. We will be losing one full time associate and getting another, which will mean disruptions for the next few months. As the senior member of the department, I will be the one whom people turn to, and I really no longer want to be the answer man. I have so many other things that I'd rather use my mind for.
Interesting point: There is this entertainer named D4VD who under suspicion for murder. The body of a teenage girl was found in the trunk of his car, and now (drum roll), there is suspicion that the body may have been either refrigerated or frozen. As soon as I saw this, my mind when back to the first Eli and Max mystery, The Body on the Lawn in which the body of a tango dancers may have been... well, you probably should read it in case you haven't.
And, or course, Elonia Musk decided to show the world where most of Orangie's influencers are located. This revelation happened for just enough time for so many people to take screen shots. Here's an example of 2:
